Apps may not schedule more than 100 distinct jobs JobScheduler Android

Question

I have a particular crash happening on Samsung devices for the most part with Android version 10. I have a JobScheduler which schedules jobs and has them in a queue for later execution.

ComponentName jobService = new ComponentName(getApplicationContext(), HeartBeatJobService.class);
JobInfo.Builder builder = new JobInfo.Builder(HeartBeatJobService.JobID, jobService);

        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N)
        {
            builder.setPeriodic(JobInfo.getMinPeriodMillis(), JobInfo.getMinFlexMillis());
        }
        else
        {
            long REFRESH_INTERVAL = 15 * 60 * 1000; // every 15 minutes
            builder.setPeriodic(REFRESH_INTERVAL);
        }
        builder.setPersisted(true);

        try
        {
            List<JobInfo> jobs = js.getAllPendingJobs();
            js.schedule(builder.build());
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            RecordException(e2);  
        }

Sometimes, there are more than 100 jobs queued as I have a piece of code which reschedules a job if something went wrong. So the app tries to resubmit this job multiple times and I assume this is done for upto 100 times which causes the crash as follows:-

I went through this post, but I cannot find the setUpdateCurrent(true) method to use. How can I resolve this issue? Any help is highly appreciated.
